Sleep is not just rest, it's recovery. In today's fast-paced life, sleep often takes a back seat. However, quality sleep is a cornerstone of healing, especially for individuals fighting chronic illnesses like cancer. Whether you're a healthy adult, a cancer patient, or a recovering survivor, sleep plays a vital role in protecting your physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
Sound sleep means sleeping 7 to 9 hours each night with minimal interruptions, allowing the body to cycle through all sleep stages—light, deep, and REM sleep. These stages are essential for:
Sleep is when the brain "cleans house" by flushing out toxins and organizing memories, making you feel mentally refreshed and focused the next day.
Lack of sleep can lead to high cortisol (stress hormone), triggering inflammation and increasing the risk of lifestyle diseases.
Studies show that chronic sleep deprivation weakens the immune system, making the body more vulnerable to infections and reducing treatment effectiveness.
At Buddha Cancer Centre, Patna, we encourage all cancer patients to prioritize restful sleep because:
For those fighting cancer, maintaining a natural circadian rhythm helps improve both mental clarity and physical strength.
Sleep is not a luxury—it’s a biological necessity. For cancer patients, survivors, and everyone seeking good health, sound sleep is as important as proper nutrition and medication.
At Buddha Cancer Centre, Patna, we believe healing begins not just with advanced treatment, but also with natural recovery boosters like sleep. Prioritize rest and let your body do the healing work from within.
